And The Lakers lost to Atlanta!

And the Hawks fans were chanting "Kobe's better" while Lebron shot free throws.

Best performance by an Atlanta crowd ever

If I'm a Philly fan I'm disgusted by that last possession. Give your team a chance...


Anyway great W

I hope this doesn’t lead to Kyrie bashing
It’s already started

was this so called leader even at the game?

Injured players dont often travel. That's why Baynes want there either. But go off though

Rofl. Expecting someone to postpone their rehab to watch a game is a crazy expectation. What’s your problem with him? It’s clearly not based on how we’re a better team with him playing, or him being our lone All-NBA level talent, let alone All-Star, so what is it?

Get the ball in Gordon’s hands

So nice to see this type of comment

Hayward needs the ball more to be effective - his strength is not being a spot-up shooter. He is a little like Bird in that he is a playmaking forward - similar style, not the same talent level, but still very good if used right. Stevens has not used him in the best way - though it's difficult when your point guard is dribbling the air out of the ball and there is not much movement.

So nice to see the ball move tonite and to see players moving without the ball instead of standing around. Maybe carried over to the defensive end - more active, more movement, more aggression, more help. That was a fun team to watch tonite. Notice the bench standing during that 4th quarter ?

Very gutsy win

Anyone else notice Embiid fouled Jaylen Brown with his arm before he made the Sixers last basket?

Anyway, Smart needs to stop with the threes and go back to being a facilitator. I know he had a hot stretch of 3 point shooting but he's coming back to earth. Play within yourself and for the team and stop being stubborn.

Also, good to see Morris back up his words with his play on the court. Minus the last awful pass, Hayward played really well and of course big Al seals the deal. He did a decent job on Embiid.

Far as I know anyone who plays for us is a C. Is Baynes not a Celtic?

What rock are you living under? He sprained/strained (I forget) his knee.

of course it translate to the defense when you play team ball. When you have  a player who thinks he can get his anytime   he wants and he makes you feel he is doing you a favor when he passes the ball... you do not want to play defense.
